Animal Farm by GEORGE ORWELL abridged for radio in five parts by DONALD BANCROFT
Read by Tom Fleming 1: The Great Rebellion
' The whole of the produce of our labour is stolen from us by human beings. There, comrades, is the answer to all- our problems. It is summed up in a single word-Man. Man is the only real enemy we have. Remove Man from the scene, and the root cause of hunger and overwork is abolished for ever.'
Producer GORDON EMSLIE (from Scotland)
